About the event
Join us for Utopic Roundtable – Season 1, a weekly Saturday evening series where real researchers come together for honest, unscripted conversations about surviving and thriving in academia.
From July 19 to October 25, 2025, we’ll explore the emotional, ethical, and practical challenges of doing research in India, especially when you’re not from a top-tier institute. Each session runs 6–7 PM IST on Google Meet, with two guests and one early-career moderator. All speakers are paid for their time.
Here’s the full lineup for Season 1:
July 19 – Why publishing in journals doesn’t always mean your work matters?
July 26 – How to write a research paper when you don’t have great English?
August 2 – What nobody tells you about choosing the right research supervisor?
